About Delight Cafe
Delight Cafe serves breakfast and lunch on Tang Hall Lane in York, run as a family business with a menu that runs from a Full English, listed as number 6, to jacket potatoes with a choice of toppings and an optional salad.

Customer Review Summary
Breakfast and sandwiches anchor the praise, with bacon sandwiches and breakfast sandwiches singled out for freshly cooked runny eggs, perfectly cooked bacon and a crispy, fluffy hash brown. Close behind are the jacket potatoes, described as the biggest one a diner had ever seen and loaded with toppings, with an optional salad called fresh and crunchy. Reviewers also name the Full English, which one says nearly beat them, the poached eggs with avocado, and the burger and chips, all in big portions. Several call the value excellent compared with what a York centre cafe would charge. Staff come up repeatedly as friendly, polite and accommodating, and one reviewer describes a family business with a community feel and seating inside and outside. No complaints appear in the reviews. A visitor who came in for sandwiches and coffees says they will be back to try the full English next time.
